The ads org is massive. Lots of different teams. I’m on the Brand Innovation Lab team and love it. Compensation is an obvious benefit. Lots of autonomy. Work/life balance is dictated often by yourself. I personally don’t work past 6pm.

Total. But there was a stock split this year. So now its 800 or something. I don’t remember. Also stocks are down huge so went from being valued at ~$130k of stocks to ~90k. You get most of the RSU’s in year 3 and 4 though so I have some time to either hope things improve, get promoted, increased bonuses, or find something new.

The way it’s supposed to work is that the “value” of your sign on bonus in yr 1 and 2 are gradually replaced by the stocks that vest, increasing the most in yr 3 and 4. So your total comp theoretically would stay the same and/or increase as you grow within the company.

I want to hear about agency ADs going to Amazon and liking it. I need hope after agency life lol

What’s the position? There are teams within that could differ.

The interview process is hella nutty. RSUs are good.

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.
